HEADSPACE is...

Adam Wakeman (Keyboards, beards)

More recently known for being the keyboard player for Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath, Adam's early work with father Rick Wakeman was an ideal apprenticeship for learning the ropes.
From the age of 18, he recorded 6 albums including "Wakeman with Wakeman" and toured each album extensively.

As well as 4 solo albums, Adam played with Travis before becoming the keyboard player with Black Sabbath in 2004.

Rich Brook (Drums)

Originally from Scotland, Richard Moved to London in 1995 to pursue music.
Having met Adam while having lunch at the house of Lords (long story), he recommended him to his father (Rick) to do some live work. It was here he met Lee and Damian.

He has been freelancing since 1997 working with various artists, both live and recording. These have included: Roger Daltry and Rick Wakeman.

Lee Pomeroy (Bass)

Lee met Rich and Adam on the Rick Wakeman gig. Amongst others, he has toured and recorded with Archive.

Pete Rinaldi (Guitar)

Pete began playing guitar age 7. At 17 he began to take it more seriously and started to play live around his native Australia. In 2002 Pete moved to London. He met Adam on a gig he was doing and completed the Headspace lineup.

Damian Wilson (Vocals)

Damian started teaching himself the guitar at the age of ten. Gave it up, took up piano for a month, then went back to the guitar but still couldn't play.
One day he walked into a music store, saw a bass guitar and knew that that was what he was destined to do…   never learnt to play though.
He has recorded four solo albums and spends his time when he is at home avoiding women and monitors…

TY MAWR – Writing and Recording.

We went into rehearsals with no pre-conceived style in mind or any riffs for that matter. We just wanted to do music we enjoyed and got a buzz from.

The first rehearsals were, surprisingly, productive. To take it a stage further we decided to rent an old mansion in rural Wales and set up a studio to write and record for a week.

It was an eventful week to say the least. The guestbook was full of entries describing paranormal events in the house so of course we tried to wind each other up. This resulted, one night, in Adam lying in an old oak chest to jump out on someone, getting somehow locked in and screaming like a little girl as he suffers from Claustrophobia.

Other paranormal-esque events included Damian leaving the house to buy a stamp (carrying I may add, no money) only to return 5 hours later completely paralytic. How he managed this we still have no idea.

The results were beyond our (and many other peoples) expectations. Some of these demo tracks will be available on our media player.

Having played live only twice (In the Isle of Man and at a Classic Rock Society gig in Rotheram) we decided it was about time do a show at Wembley Arena.
Adam, by now, was also playing as part of Ozzy Osbourne’s band and it just so happened Ozzy was touring the UK in 2007. Things were starting to fall into place.

Ozzy kindly let us open for him for the UK and Ireland dates (Check out the media and pics page). We held our own and didn’t get bottled off once. Damian struck a rapport with any punter shouting abuse by diving into the crowd after the show and making friends with them.

Big thanks to OZZY and Sharon for that. We had a ball!
